Between two obvious goaltends Wembenyama got away with & missing Norman Powell....hard to get mad at this L. Refs were on one, but it wouldn't have mattered if we at least had Norman. Ah well....on to the next.

The bad:
- Ware invisible.
- Jovic terrible.
- Jaime regression.
- Davion going full Rozier.
+ Sloppy turnovers and general poor ball handling at different parts of the game.

Re: Game 5: Miami @ San Antonio 10/30 8:30 PM EST
Couple of the 13 3s were desperation last second shots that had to go up, 3 of them went down Wembys throat. Couple of them probably came with a little fatigue behind them but I would say overall that was likely our gameplan with Wemby defending Bam. This was probably an outlier due to needing to pull an absolute freak of nature out of the paint to try and free things up for guys like Jaime Davion and Ware, unfortunately they all **** the bed despite that

I think the Spurs will end up being a top team in the West if Wemby stays healthy. They didn't blow us out. So I am okay with this loss. On to the next game!

I dont see a problem with bam taking 13 3s this game. He had no choice since no one else could do anything. And that spacing is what allowed wiggins to do the bulk of his damage in the paint. Spurs weren't guarding Mitchell, pelle, and ware at all.
It's odd to me reading one or 2 posts on other platforms complaining about bam and wiggins taking too many shots this game.

It is obvious spo gameplan
Wasn't sound.
It was just a mistake in basketball...
In the first half SpongeBob was ok... but You could sense sporon was emerging...
spo should brush This game off... His players were not up to the task.
What Worries me a bit was bam Taking all those 3s... He is not 20yrs old anymore, bam should know better... I get it. It's early in the season and this game doesn't matter much...
But he has never been a good shooter
And he is just trying to compete With a 7-7 guy For attention

Think most of us already pencilled this as a loss prior to tip off so whatever, on to the next.
Bam resurgence is a huge plus if there's any moral victories to take that's for sure.
It is mind boggling how this league time after time continues to arrange outcomes with selected golden boys, teams and narrative. But even more amazing how we sport lovers, fanboys, or whatever tag we carry, continue to engage with this sport, like the masochist we are. Of course I speak for myself lol
They can’t be this stupid, they know that we know what they are up to, but they don’t care to change, because they also know that we are addicts of their crappy fake product.

If spurs had fox would cancel out both Herro and Powell
Absolutely not. Fox is nice af, but not "outperform Herro AND Powell", nice. But the Spurs are missing their backup center and sochan too. If both teams are healthy, it would be one hell of a game.
Yeah I have to start using green font.. tongue emoji isn’t enough to show sarcasm
